Diane von Furstenberg’s After-Party at Indochine

“I always look ahead, but I really liked today because it represented very much of everything I believe in a woman,” said Diane von Furstenberg, while celebrating her latest fall collection at downtown hot spot Indochine last night. Always the ultimate hostess, the designer bounced across banquettes while dancing to the Motown beats of DJ Chelsea Leyland and greeted friends and guests with a warm hug. “The inspiration was Rendez-vous, but after seeing the show today, I think the real rendezvous was about me and Yvan getting it together,” she mused about her creative director.

The crowd, including Gia Coppola, Elisa Sednaoui, Michelle Harper, and Lily Kwong, were decked out in smart cocktail dresses and tailored suits, sipping on champagne and enjoying the signature Indochine martini (their take on the classic infused with pineapple, ginger and fresh lime juice) over a delectable three-course dinner. The restaurant has become sort of a second home to the designer, who has been hosting her after-parties there for many a season now. “I don’t know, it’s one of those good things,” Ms. von Furstenberg explained. “Also, I’m superstitious, so it’s good luck.”
